At IPC, we teach our students about sustainability and social responsibility in relation to the planet’s resources, but we also need to walk the talk! Food, in particular, is an area where we as an international community can make a positive difference in relation to the planet’s resources, by ensuring that our global values and ambitions related to sustainability are integrated, operationalised and reflected in our local kitchen practices.
Therefore, IPC will in 2025 “put our money where our mouth is” and implement a series of concrete measures and policies in relation to sustainable purchasing of food, reduction of food waste, prioritisation of ecology and development of plant-based food strategies.
Our green ambitions:
✅ Serving tasty, sustainable and more plant-based whole food
✅ Achieving and maintaining a Silver Organic Cuisine Label*
✅ Creating a stronger linkage between the food we serve and our educational activities
✅ Sharing knowledge with our partners and local community
✅ Reduction of food waste
* The Silver Organic Cuisine Label indicates that 60-90% of the ingredients used in the kitchen are organic.
A big thanks to Fonden for Økologisk Landbrug and NextGenerationEU for the generous grant enabling us to invest in the green transition of IPC’s kitchen.
